INGREDIENTS

For The Porridge:

¾ cup quinoa
2 cups coconut milk (or any milk) and ¼ cup reserved to pour over porridge once placed in bowl
zest of 1 orange and juice from the whole orange
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ cup oats
1 tablespoon chia seeds
sea salt

6 ounces California Giant raspberries
6 ounces California Giant blackberries
zest of 1 orange and juice from the whole orange
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon honey or maple, optional
½ tablespoon chia seeds
pinch of sea salt
fresh mint, basil or tarragon for topping, optional

DIRECTIONS

- - For the porridge, add all of the ingredients except for the oats and chia seeds into a sauce pan and cook for as long as the quinoa packet instructs (about 15 minutes).
- - Once the quinoa has cooked for 7 minutes, add in the oats to cook. At the last minute, stir in the chia seeds.
- - In the meantime, cook the compote. Add all of the compote ingredients except the chia seeds in a sauce pan and cook on medium-low heat for 5-10 minutes, or until the berries have softened and some of the liquid has evaporated. Now stir in the chia seeds and let it rest for a few minutes so they have time to absorb.
- - Pour the quinoa porridge into two bowls and pour the remaining coconut milk over the top of the porridge. Add a dollop of the compote, fresh basil and berries.
